  • Dynamic equilibrium, when two reversible processes (in thermodynamics) occur at the same rate
  • Chemical equilibrium, when a chemical reaction proceeds at the same rate as its reverse reaction, with no change in the amount of each compound
  • Mechanical equilibrium, when the sum of the forces and moments on each particle of a system is zero
  • Quasistatic equilibrium, when internal processes change gradually from one equilibrium state to the next
In biological science
  • Punctuated equilibrium, a part of evolutionary theory that states that speciation occurs relatively quickly with long periods of little change in between.
In economics In game theory
